I love your site!!!!! I visited the Netherlands over the past summer. I attended a parachut jump school on the Island of Texel, located in on the Nord Sea. You live in a beautiful place. South Carolina is not bad either. I love my two Great Whites. One is almost three and the other six months. It took a while for the older one to get used to Sheba, but they are best buds now.
Take care, give the dogs a kiss for me!

Lisa and I recently purchased two Pyr female pups to help keep predators at bay around our poultry farm. I am amazed at how gentle they are, even as pups. They also seem to be unaffected by the weather, or moreso than other dogs. I will bookmark your great site for future references.
Thanks,

I am just looking for information on Pyr's. I know nothing at all about this special dog.
I am adopting a 4 year old female to add to my family of 3 children, a significant other, and
a very spoiled Blue Heeler/German Shephard.
What is the best type of food? Sleeping arrangements? Toys, etc.
I am very appreciative of any/all help I can get.
Thank you. Lisa Hager

Pyrs Yes
We have a wonderful, fairly white pyr named Annie Oakley. She loves to lay on top of her dog house and other spots in the back yard that are higher up so that she can view the largest area possible. She is a mud-puppy. She like to stand in her water dish and then roll in the dirt. We bought Annie from a breeder in Colorado two years ago when we were living on horse property there. Now, instead of chasing horses, she chases around our golden retriever Jesse James and goes to the beach to prance around the waves.

Macerata, ITALY, November, 8, 1997
First of all my congratulations for your fine "doggy" site.
I like dogs, particularly giant dogs, but as far as now I
hadn't any because of my living in a town apartment, which
in my opinion isn't the best accomodation for such a big
animal like the Pyr, or, for example, the Leonberger
(another breed which meets my likes). Until I shall be
in the condition of going to live in a house in the
countryside, I'll follow to share my life with Lulù,
a very beautiful girl, quite young, belonging to the
feline breed.
All the way, I'll go on visiting your lovely site.
Best regards
Giandorico Bonfranceschi

Would like information concerning training our dogs not to take food from strangers or food found that might have been tossed onto the property (concerned about poisoning). Our predators are the two legged variety. Our 80 + lb "babies" have the responsibility of watching our goat herd, annoying our pot bellied pig, drooling on the cat and being taught who is boss by our Shepard mix, older female (she stands about six inches shorter than the boys). They do respect her as the Alpha female. We did install a pet door in our gate... we could not stand to see our babies looking so pathetic being left with only the goats. Now, they have access to the entire property. Thanks for the great web page.

*Kayla is four years old and is Super Guard Dog!! She grew up on the river and loves to swim or hang out in the raining ditches. she just passed her screen test with B.C. Pets & Friends so we will go visiting the elderly in the hospital once a week. If I could figure out how to walk two pyrs I would gladly get another one. instead our edition last year with Miss Tiggy, an abandoned barn cat she stumbled across in the middle of the road that we nursed back to health. for the ontario lady that was looking for breeders back east i would highly recommend Limberlost Kennels who are on the net, Lois McIntosh is the breeder.

2 wonderful companions (average for a pyr I suppose)
Anytime I'm asked about the Pyr's reputation for stubborness, I merely call mine over to my side without incidence and comment on my previous pair of Chow Chows. Now that was difficult. Anyway, I hope to own my own 6-pack of Pyrs. That would be fun.

Pyrs yes female katey 7months
Hi Just got my wonderful dog 3 months ago. She has a personality like none I have seen before. I love her lots but I am worried about her biting , pawing and jumping on people when she is excited. She also has trouble staying outside for more than ten minutes with out barking and distrubing the neighbors. Is this normal? I do not know anyone with Great Pyrenees and this is my first. PLEASE IF ANYONE HAS ANY INFO OR HELPFUL TIPS EMAIL ME.
Thankyou Pyrlover

I am just a simple pet owner who has always had Old English Sheepdogs. When my 13 year old had to be put to sleep, I decided to investigate a different breed. After much research, I decided upon a Pyr. She is now a 7 month old spayed female and one of the most interesting dogs I have ever known. I think she is wonderful, but have yet to really be able to figure her out. I want to read more general information about the breed but information is limited. I guess I will learn by experience.

We love your site, especially all of the wonderful pictures. We have a pyrenees mix that we rescued from our local "dog pound". She was 40# underweight and looked like a haystack. Now she is fully recovered and a wonderful addition to our family. She takes great care of our little boy and his friends too.

Their non-Pyr siblings are Queenie, Dusty, and Moosey. All
are great West Virginia University Mountaineer fans! We also

quite a noisy place. We enjoyed your site and love all Pyr

Pyrs No, but my uncle does
My 95 yer old uncle raises fighting cocks, and he's always
needed a dog to guard them, as he lives out in the country.
He's outlived lots of guard dogs of various kinds. He now
has a 9 month old pyr, a beautiful dog named Duke. I'm
sending him info off the 'net about the breed - he doesn't
know much about them. So far, Duke has kept away all the
varmits, and most importantly, doesn't attack the chickens
himself. My uncle is very interested in training his dogs,
so Duke should be easy.
